Grants to schools in Herefordshire

Guidance for funding requests

The objective of the Sylvia Short Educational Charity is to promote education by the making of grants for fieldwork and extra curricular studies to persons who:

are aged between 4 – 19

are in need of financial assistance; and

are attending school or college in Herefordshire

The Sylvia Short Educational Charity works hard to support those in greatest need of financial assistance. Our funds are limited and requests for funding often outweigh our available resources. Please ensure that you make the strongest case for funding and the impact it will have.

We will not ordinarily fund more than £500 for an individual application or over £1,000 for a group application.

Group Applications

Applications by schools, colleges and other appropriate educational organisations to benefit groups should be based on extra-curricular or off-site educational experiences or related needs.

Organisations should distinguish and identify by number those in specific financial need.
